The Pennsylvania Circle of Ancient Philosophy (PCAP) is pleased to announce its second annual conference, to be held at Villanova University, March 15-16, 2014.

PCAP aims to promote a community of local scholars dedicated to the study of ancient philosophy. Our annual conference provides a venue for graduate students and faculty to share new research and works in progress that cut across a variety of disciplinary and methodological approaches.

We welcome submissions on any topic in Ancient Greek and Roman philosophy.

Additionally, we also welcome inquiries from anyone interested in serving as a respondent or in becoming part of PCAP.

Keynote Speakers:

Christopher P. Long (Pennsylvania State University)

Adriel Trott (Wabash College)
